Jenkins, Scott sent to D-League

The Hawks have sent rookies John Jenkins and Mike Scott to their D-League affiliate, Bakersfield.

Neither of the two have received a lot of playing time so far this year. Combined, they’ve only played about 29 minutes, and Jenkins was really the only one of the two who looked like he warranted more playing time.
According to Chris Vivlamore, they probably won’t spend a long time in the D-League. With the Hawks off until Wednesday, it’s probable that the team just wanted to get the two some legitimate playing time. Bakersfield plays games on Monday and Tuesday.
